As soon as the opportunity opened up and I knew I was getting a shot, I was jumping on it. The opportunity to be competing for a job in the NFL without an established veteran being in front of you, you can't ask for more. |
I actually heard about it last year by my special teams coach in Pittsburgh. We practiced it a little bit in training camp this year, but never quite that deep. |
It was awkward. I didn't get the full ball; I got under it just a bit. |
That's obviously a plus, and guys appreciate that, knowing they don't have to cover the whole kick. |
We're here all day, so I just need somewhere to lay down and maybe catch an hour of TV, then go to sleep. I'll be back in here in the morning, so it's not that big of a deal right now. |
